Who is hiding Who backwards Who's who The answers to these questions are not as simple as they appear. In this sturdy te reo Mori board book edition of bestsellerWho's Hiding 18 colourful animals stand in a row. Something small changes on every double page: animals disappear, turn around, cry or sleep. Young children love spotting the changes and, at the same time, get to know animal names, colours, expressions, emotions and how to count.
